Binaural prediction of speech intelligibility in reverberant rooms with multiple noise sources.
When speech is in competition with interfering sources in rooms, monaural indicators of intelligibility fail to take account of the listener's abilities to separate target speech from interfering sounds using the binaural system. In order to incorporate these segregation abilities and their susceptibility to reverberation, Lavandier and Culling [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 127, 387-399 (2010)] proposed...
متن کاملMonaural/binaural preferences: effect of hearing aid circuit on speech intelligibility and sound quality.
This investigation compared monaural and binaural hearing aid preferences of 15 adults with mild-to-moderately-severe bilaterally symmetrical sensorineural hearing losses. Subjects listened to connected discourse in quiet and background noise at 70 and 80 dB SPL with K-Amp, linear Class D, linear output limiting compression (OLC), Manhattan II, and linear asymmetrical peak clipping circuits (AP...
متن کاملمدل میکروسکوپی دوگوشی مبتنی بر فیلتر بانک مدولاسیون برای پیش گویی قابلیت فهم گفتار در افراد دارای شنوایی عادی
In this study, a binaural microscopic model for the prediction of speech intelligibility based on the modulation filter bank is introduced. So far, the spectral criteria such as the STI and SII or other analytical methods have been used in the binaural models to determine the binaural intelligibility. In the proposed model, unlike all models of binaural intelligibility prediction, an automatic ...
متن کاملVirtual Acoustics and 3-d Sound in Multimedia Signal Processing
In this work, aspects in real-time modeling and synthesis of three-dimensional sound in the context of digital audio, multimedia, and virtual environments are studied. The concept of virtual acoustics is discussed, which includes models for sound sources, room acoustics, and spatial hearing. Real-time virtual acoustics modeling is carried out using a real-time parametric room impulse response r...
متن کاملWhich Wideband Speech Codec? Quality Impact due to Room-acoustics at Send Side and Presentation Method
We report on two listening tests to determine the speech quality of different wideband (WB) speech codecs. In the first test, we have studied various network conditions, including WB–WB and WB–narrowband (WB– NB) tandeming, packet loss, and background noise. In addition to other findings, this test showed some codec quality rank-order changes when compared to the literature. To evaluate the hyp...
